This book makes a contribution to the field of Modern
Greek lexicography by exploring how corpus evidence
can shed light on dictionary definitions, senses and
examples. To illustrate this, it combines a
descriptive and an empirical approach to the
investigation of the lemmata that have prepositional
prefixes and derive from the verb ["to fire";
"to attack"] thus belonging to the same word family.
The study draws upon principles of mainstream
lexicography to scrutinise the theoretical premises
on which two Modern Greek dictionaries are based. For
the purposes of the data analysis both qualitative
and quantitative methods are employed. As this
analysis reveals, taking frequencies into
consideration would have a profound effect on the
existing sense ordering in the dictionary entries.
Moreover, it emerges from the results that the
entries may be enriched through close scrutiny of the
Hellenic National Corpus evidence, which furnishes
additional meanings and uses not included in the
dictionaries. This book is of practical use for
lexicographers, researchers and linguists concerned
with the description and the in-depth analysis of the
Modern Greek language.
